<br>
I don’t see any example of fundamental operational difficulties linked
with TLDs in the example your describe.<br>
<br>
All I see is a mismanaged domain name transfer from one registrar to another...<br>

Earlier this year some of you all wondered what my operational concerns were
with simultaneous starting of the new TLD and IDNs. This is just too perfect an
example not to share!<br>
<br>
If you try, to bring up www.isoc.org <<a href="http://www.isoc.org">http://www.isoc.org</a>>
right now. Some of you all will get “cannot find web server”!<br>
<br>
I was on a call with ISOC this morning on some other issues. At the end
of the call, I asked them why their website was down. It wasn’t
actually down and using the IP address instead of the URL, it worked fine
(which won’t even be doable by anyone other than a network engineer in
IPv6). But it didn’t resolve on at least AT&T and Comcast from
Seattle.<br>
<br>
They just emailed back with the cause. They switched registrars today and
had only a partial transfer occur to the TLDs. <br>
<br>
TLD operations up to now have as much been networked via “personal
contacts” as by technology since there were only a dozen or so TLD
operators globally. Our technology will need to significantly improve to
insure coordination and security between what will be a growing number of TLD
and IDN-TLD operators; and IDN alone adds tremendously to the DNS technical
complexity.<br>
<br>
Anyway good food for discussions over a late night drink in Sydney.<br>
<br>
Take care<br>
